I liked the episode with Dirk Blocker (son of Dan Blocker). I can't recall the title
of the episode. He didn't appear in any scenes with Michael Landon, though
(which, I guess, would have been awkward considering how much he resembles
his famous father). He acted in some other shows, including a BONANZA made-
for-TV movie with Michael Landon Jr. Interestingly, he didn't play Hoss's son;
another actor did. Dirk bore a striking facial resemblance but didn't have Dan's
large build. For LITTLE HOUSE, though, he was perfect because he was
bigger than any of the other students.
